Henry Froom BECK of Newbury
« on: Thursday 21 January 16 15:22 GMT (UK) »
I have just discovered that I am a descendant of Henry Froom BECK, the well-known Newbury Town Crier who died in 1872. Are there any other descendants? If so, I would love to hear from you.

Thank you for your reply. Funnily enough I had a look last night but found nothing so added my BECK and GRAVES.

He was my husband's great great grandfather.   Henry Froom Beck's son was John Nathaniel Beck born 1832, whose daughter was Sylvia Beck, whose daughter was Annie French, whose son was Edward Walsh (my husband).   I have more detailed information if you'd like it.

Hello VillageDuckpond,
I had a query on the Gloucester board regarding a missing Maria Hannah Elizabeth CORBETT who was tracked down, with help. She had married Henry Froom/Frome BECK c1858-1896, son of John BECK & Matilda PARGETER and brother of Sylvia. Capetown referred me to the Berkshire Board and this thread so thought I would pop in and say hello. You may already have all the information about Maria & Henry, but good to meet another family member, however distant :)

How interesting to hear from you Heather.   Your John Beck was the eldest brother of Annie Beck.  She was my husband's grandmother.    I have John and Maria as having four children.
